I don't think 'grave' "renders package unusable" is correct for this
since it seems to only affect those using diff files.  I also don't
use diff files and had not noticed any breakage.  It would be a
tragedy if it were removed from Testing for being unsuable since the
package isn't actually unusable.  It is quite usable to many.  Most?
Well... At least some of us.  Who knows how many since there is no way
to tell how many use --diff=none or not.

Bug#808216: Removal of debmirror from testing

2016-01-16 Thread Bernhard
Hello Colin

Only for my interest:
The package debmirror is marked for autoremoval from testing end of
January.
I need this package for creating my own installation-CD.

Do you see any chance to prevent the autoremoval?
I see you have a patch because of bug #808216.
For me, this package works fine, because i don't use the diff-files.

Best regards and thanks for your work at the debian project.
Bernhard
